Meerkat Prompts: Wishing to do more…
What do you wish you could do more every day?
Presently, I work in retail sales. I have early starts, and busy days, punctuated by some very tedious days. My day job pays the bills, and I’ve had worse day jobs, but my desire, what my heart wants most of all, is to write and be paid for it. My fondest wish is to be able to live off my book royalties, and tied to that wish is having the time and freedom to write!
Life – and this is as much on me as others – tends to get in the way. Returning from a long day at work, I am not usually full of creative energy. I have other things I want or need to do. My wife and daughter want or need my attention. On the occasions where my time is not my own, it can feel frustrating; where I make my own choices, I can only hold myself responsible for a failure to write.
If I had more time, I would love to spend it writing. I enjoy writing. Bringing my stories to life is a richly rewarding experience. Developing these prompt posts and Muses and my other posts is also enjoyable. Sharing it all with you, my dear ‘kats, is a joy. That is my wish.
